the 693 is gonna be a nice unit it seems, if they keep the same price point ~240msrp

has time alignment built in and alot of other cool features

before they had the 991, 792 and a 692, now they dropped the 7 series and have a 993 and 693, but the only difference i can see is 993 has built in bluetooth, wish they would have kept some of the cool stuff from the 991, it had a ton of stuff

kenwood hands down... pioneers just dont cut it anymore. havent in a long time imo... i run a older kenwood and have tried to replace it several times but always end up going back to my kenwood.

oo i see... the more i read about the 991 makes me want the 993 over the 800PRS. everyone runs pioneer [the cheap models] here anyway and its boring to have the same thing as everyone else....

NOT the 800PRS. It has 2 knobs. But it looks like the 800PRS is once again Pioneer's best offering.

Sort of OT question regarding 2009 headunits:

Is Eclipse only releasing one headunit this year? (CD5030)

Based on what?? They have made a lot of great head units over the years. It's obvious you like Kenwood and thats cool but that doesn't mean everything else is garbage.

do any of those Kenwoods have a DTV tuner built in? I read a while back in CA&E that the new 09 Kenwoods would include some feature called "Drive" which was sopposed to be a DTV tuner capable of sat tv on the go..

well i dont see anything written about it, BUT on the icons there is one that says TV and has a pic of tv icon, that isnt on any of the models now unless you might might have to hokk up the old hide away tuner to get the icon to pop up, not sure, but it dosent say anything about it

For 2009, Kenwood is expanding its double-DIN DVD receiver lineup to include a new flagship model, the Kenwood eXcelon DNX9140 ($2,000 suggested retail price). This is a “best-in-class” DVD receiver with 6.95” high resolution WVGA touchscreen control, built-in advanced navigation technology by Garmin and the industry’s most comprehensive voice control system that provides the utmost in hands-free operation. Kenwood’s voice control feature allows the user to fully operate the navigation system and utilize features such as entering addresses, choosing menu options and selecting points of interest. The voice control system will also operate the audio and video systems, allowing the user to control any of the connected or built-in sources with common functions such as search, selection, and display information as well as manage audio control functions. Through the addition of built-in Bluetooth by Parrot, the DNX9140 has compatibility with the widest range of cell phones and smartphones including iPhone and BlackBerry. High performance audio is made possible through an on-board DSP processor, providing true 5.1 surround-sound and digital time alignment. The DNX9140 has an advanced USB platform that supports high-speed operation of iPod, iPhone, mass storage devices, and Kenwood’s Advanced Bus (KAB) that allows connection to satellite radio and HD Radio (optional iPod, HD Radio, M/H or satellite radio accessories are required). In addition, the DNX9140 will have the ability to connect to an M/H digital television tuner when it becomes available from Kenwood in 2010. Last but not least, the DNX9140 offers variable key illumination. This feature allows the user to match the look of the backlit buttons along the bottom of the screen to their interior lighting. The DNX9140 carries a two-year limited warranty and is only available from authorized Kenwood eXcelon retailers.

I like the looks of the new pioneers. Maybe this year kenwood will get rid of their POS purple pixellized display on their single din units?

the new pioneer dont look that good they look pretty cheap

Wow. You made that judgment based on looking at a photo of some literature?? You definitely have better eyes than anyone else on the forum. I personally don't like them either but for different reasons. I don't really like ANY headunit with disco lights. I prefer the simple elegant look.
